Instructions for Fresh Orange Cake

Heat oven to 350F. Grease and flour 2 8-inch round layer cake pans. Grate the rind from two of the oranges, then peel these and one other orange, removing all of the white next to the pulp. Discard the peel. Section these oranges, discarding membranes and seeds. Cut the sections into very small pieces. Squeeze the remaining orange and add the juice to the cut-up fruit sections. Measure out 1 1/4 cups of this mixture and add 1/2 cup sugar to it. Stir until the sugar dissolves. Take out 1/4 cup and reserve for the icing. Cream sugar well, add 1 cup sugar gradually and cream well after each addition. Sift flour, baking powder, soda and salt together and add to creamed mixture alternately with the orange-sugar mixture. Stir in one tablespoon of the grated orange rind. Beat egg whites until stiff but not dry and fold in. Turn into prepared pans and bake about 25 minutes or until tops spring back when touched lightly in the center. Turn out on racks and cool. Fill and ice with Orange Cream Icing and sprinkle top with remaining grated orange rind. From Geminis MASSIVE MealMaster collection at www.synapse.com/~gemini
